Ch 2 : Alexia arrest
On the airplane to the secured location - an aircraft carrier that can convert to a flying aircraft carrier, Fox is telling Mario about how it's such an honor that they found him and tells him about his Mario and Rosalina trading card collection. They then head to the helicarrier and Mario is Happy to see his two daughter Madison and Skyler Star. The two then wonder what kind of ride they're in for. Mario thinks it's a submarine but the last thing Skyler should be riding in is a submerged, pressurized metal container. The carrier takes off. On board, they are briefed that Dr. Mario and Alexia have been traced to the Wind Kingdom.
Mario' first assignment is to go to the Wind Kingdom to arrest Alexia and bring him on board the helicarrier. Alexia is at a formal black tie gala at an art museum where she is kidnapping a doctor who harbors the element they need to make the Tesseract work. While Dr. Mario creates a distraction and Pit kills the men guarding the building, Alexia carries out his plan. Outside, she is instructing the civilians present that they need to kneel before her - or else, and that freedom is life's great lie. She's then confronted by Mario in Red ,White and Blue regalia, and later Madison makes her entrance to the tune of AC/DC's "Shoot To Kill" with full Rescue armor weapons drawn and daring Alexia to make a move.
Alexia quickly surrenders when the two heroes arrive, and while being escorted to the high tech prison she's about to be imprisoned in, the plane encounters a lighting storm. Mario asks Alexia if she's afraid of lighting but Alexia tells him it's not the lightning that she's afraid of. It's what follows. Leo , Alexia's half-brother and the Norse God of thunder, arrives and attempts to capture Loki so Alexia can face Asguardian justice for her crimes (which will be more effective than Earth's), but he gets into a fight with Mario and Madison. The fight ends in a stalemate. Eventually, Alexia is taken to the helicarrier and placed in a glass cell designed to hold Primal Skyler. Tirrel explains that if Alexia attempts to escape, even by merely cracking the glass, a shaft will open below her and she'll plummet to Earth and possibly be killed.
On board the aircraft carrier, the fully assembled Avengers squad are being briefed by Tirrel about what they think will possibly happen next. Alexia is in prison and is interrogated by Agent Rosalina. Madison Star arrives and it seems the only one of the group she really gets along with is Skyler. While conducting experiments on Alexia's scepter, Madison tries to get a rise out of Skyler so she can witness Skyler's famous party trick (read: turning into Primal Skyler). Skyler flinches and then begins telling about how she's been unable to fully harness her abilities and that she suffered depression after the accident. That's why she moved to Calcutta, as helping people is what gives her life meaning.
The Avengers, now brought together, argue and deliberate over how to approach Alexia and the revelation that NEST plans to harness the Tesseract's power to develop weapons, a discovery made by Mario. Tirrel admits that the events in Sarasaland a year before (recounted in Mario Dark of Moon) made NEST aware of other races on other worlds, some of whom may see Earth as an easy target. Leo is seen asking agent Fox about what happened to Princess Amber. Fox tells him that N.E.S.T. has placed her in their witness protection program and that she's in a safe zone in the Wind Kingdom.
